For those interested, Broken Age can be pre-ordered (Steam key and beta access. Not the same as becoming a "backer" but you get the game and beta access which is what most people would want) for $15 on the game's official site. Since TotalBiscuit's subreddit is a consumer friendly environment, I feel that should be pointed out since that price cannot be found on the DoubleFine website, and the Humble Bundle is more about supporting DoubleFine rather than pre-ordering Broken Age.

Well aside from PC, where else would they have released Dust 514? Xbox is locked down to all hell, Wii U is selling like shit, Ouya would be silly, and iPhones and tablets would just be terribly awful.

They picked PS3 because you can draw in a new audience who would have never been interested in Eve Online in the first place, which has the added benefit of not taking players away from Eve Online and splitting the playerbase.

Fair point. I still wonder if the EVE playerbase would leave it for Dust. I think it would attract the pc fps crowd, because a lot of people are interested in the EVE universe, they just don't care about the spreadsheets. I wonder if console in general is the right audience - how many are even familiar with EVE?
